Understanding Aperature

UNDERSTANDING APERTURE





  • ISO: 800 
  • Aperture: 4.5
  • Shutter Speed: 1/200







  • ISO: 800
  • Aperture: 11.0
  • Shutter Speed: 160





1. Aperture is the size of the opening in a lense when a picture is taken.
2. When the aperture is lower the picture is brighter and vice versa.
3. The higher the aperture the lower the shutter speed and vice versa.

  • Aperture: 5.6
  • Shutter Speed: 1/100



  • ISO: 1600
  • Aperture: 5.0
  • Shutter Speed: 1/200






1. Amount of time that the shutter is open.
2. Decides whether the photo will be blurry or clear. 
3. The higher the shutter speed the lower the aperture.

ISO

  • Aperture: 5.6
  • Shutter Speed: 1/5

Me:)


Black and White Bo

Dear future boss of Bo,
           

            Hello. I would like you to meet my close friend Austin Robert Waggoner, also known as Bo. He is a very hard worker and loves taking pictures of things you don’t normally see and third world countries. He wishes he were taller because he has a strong passion for basketball. I’m guessing you will probably be some sort of athletic director because when Bo is older he dreams of being a basketball coach. When he is alone he loves reading novels, his favorite genre is romance.  If Bo is ever MIA you can most likely find him shooting hoops in his front yard. He hates Miley Cyrus and spiders.  Bo wishes he had more patience with his little brother, Jackson and he tends to take jokes too far to the point of making people angry with him.  If Bo had one super power it would be to fly so he could get “amazing sky high” photos.

What Makes a Good Photograph?


As I was reading the blog post; I read something saying that a good photograph inspires you. I completely agree. A good photograph inspires me to travel to where the picture was taken or do what the people in the pictures are doing. It excites me and makes me want to push to do more and experience more. Good photographs have focal points, good lighting, pretty landscape, and most importantly spark of interest.
